Lenore Lake Caves — Sunday, Sep. 22, 2013

Central Washington > Grand Coulee
This is the 2nd cave.
It was raining when we started our hike so we ended up hiking the trail quickly. The trail gave us a great view of Lake Lenore which, due to the strong wind gusts, had waves crashing to the sandy shore much like a small ocean. We hiked along the well constructed path to the first cave. It was a small scramble up the scree to the cave. Once inside we enjoyed the peace from the torrent of rain falling down. Quickly we made our way back down the scree and over to the 2nd cave which is much deeper. Inside I couldn't help but feel like I was a part of the history here. It certainly gave protection from the wind and rain and, with a fire, could have been quite cozy. The hike overall took roughly a half hour to complete.
